TUCSON (KVOA) – Taco Bell helps students in southern Arizona continue their education with grants from its foundation.
On Thursday, local Taco Bell franchisee Todd Bisbocci presented a check for $ 50,000 to the Boys & Girls Club of Tucson in the city’s newest Taco Bell location on the Tucson Marketplace.
The money is part of $ 81,000 in grants for the Boys & Girls Club of Tucson and Sierra Vista and the Junior Achievement of Arizona.
He also awarded $ 90,000 in “Live Más” scholarships to local students.
Bisbocci said if you are a Taco Bell customer, thank you for this fundraiser.
“When you round up your order total at Taco Bell, the change you give will change the lives of students with bold ambitions,” said Todd Bisbocci.
That year, the company made $ 7 million in Live Más grants to 725 employees and young people across the country and made $ 10 million in grants to 400 youth education nonprofits.
The Taco Bell Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that promotes educational dreams through scholarships and grants.
